That was amazing. As someone who just dumped someone and has been doing a lot of thinking and missing and crying lately as a result, this really struck a chord in me. So...thanks. I'm sorry I can't say anything particularly eloquent, but I felt that you captured the whole palette of emotions really beautifully.

Thank you very much for your thoughtful comment.

That's a really big compliment; I'm touched. Introspective pieces are quite tricky to write, I think, so I'm particularly glad that this came across as intended.

That was amazing! I'm not much an Albus/Elphias shipper, but I really felt for the guy this time! The heartbreak he had to go through as well, and never have the opportunity to tell his one and only love how he felt... yeah, I feel a little bad for him now. ;o

But I still love Albus and Gellert, how sad things had to work out the way they did!

But that's J.K. for ya, isn't it? :]

Thanks very much for reading and commenting :-) I'm glad the sense of sympathy for Elphias came through here; yeah, it seems a shame that he never get's his chance...

But that's J.K. for ya, isn't it? :]

Quite right!

Excellent! I loved the descriptions, and I felt so terrible for Elphias at the end. Thanks so much for writing this!
